Week 1 in Photos

From Opening Day to Orientation, Physical Testing, Classes, Soccer and Work outs... we had a big week! I couldn't include all the photos but below gives you a feel for some of it.

Back on campus!

Orientation: 
 "What words describe the Burke Process?"

"Why do we value the Burke Process?"


Students learn how to use the new learning management system Canvas. 

 Physical Testing:

 With what seemed like the whole school cheering him on, Chris O'Brien crushed the beep test.

Darrell revived the infamous "Knee Touch Squats" at Willoughby Lake for our final physical test. The heart and soul that comes out during KTSs is unmatched. Props to all athletes who gave 100% effort for the 85/100 secs (girls/guys).

While the guys headed to a couple soccer games this week (photos later I'm sure), the girls headed to Lake Willoughby for more fun times. They hiked up and over Mt. Pisgah, which is the right-hand mountain of the Gap when looking from campus. Most had never hiked it. Then they hit up the rope swing and Devil's Rock. Some good summertime and limit-pushing activities!
